Nicole Ryan The Rate of Heat Loss Introduction My investigation is to find out the main method at which a liquid cools. When a liquid cools down, it loses heat in four ways: * Conduction * Convection * Evaporation * Radiation Aim MY aim is to investigate which method of heat loss is mainly responsible for a cooling a liquid down by changing the main method of heat loss and measuring the cooling rate. Prediction Heat is generally transferred by conduction, convection, evaporation and radiation. All these processes can all happen simultaneously, but it is likely that one will give the greater heat exchange. Below is a description of the processes that will affect my experiment. Conduction This is where heat energy passes through the walls of the can by making the particles of the can vibrate and then they will make the particles next to them vibrate causing the heat to pass through the walls of the can and out to the...
